Over-promise and under-deliver

The CD player in my German lemon failed today; the latest in a string of failures following the volume control, the touch pad and the navigation system.

Buyers should beware of companies who promise stuff like 'The Best or Nothing' or 'The Ultimate Something'.

It appears their marketing departments are writing cheques that their engineering can't cash.

But then, to be fair, the software engineers at some German firms have been rather busy with other priorities in the recent past.
